READING, England, June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- The UK's 160,000-plus charities can now access a new knowledge base to leverage scarce resources in the economic downturn. The website, http://www.knowhownonprofit.org, is hosted by DediPower, a leading UK provider of managed hosting and data centre solutions, and was developed by The Centre for Charity Effectiveness Trust to deliver a shared platform for charity workers.

KnowHow NonProfit is the place for nonprofit people to learn and share what they have learnt with others. Delivering content specific to benefit the not-for-profit sector via discussions, case studies and simulations tools, the website provides advice on funding, raising awareness for your charity and leadership. Crucially, KnowHow NonProft drives networking and working together, and how collectively not-for-profit organisations can make a difference.

In launching a new business model, our reputation was critical and it was important for us to work with a hosting provider that would deliver to us a secure, reliable and most importantly flexible managed hosting solution. We selected DediPower based on their track record for delivering a reliable service, coupled with their solid experience in working with start-up organisations like ourselves, said Sahara Quli, CEO, KnowHow NonProfit.

DediPower's managed hosting provides enterprises with business server solutions, delivering custom-built, high-specification dedicated servers.

In the current economic conditions, not-for-profit organisations are facing increasing challenges. This makes KnowHow NonProfit an exciting initiative and innovative knowledge base. With nearly 20,000 registered users after its launch, we look forward to supporting their efforts in reaching out to individuals who work in not-for-profit organisations, said Craig Martin, CEO, DediPower Managed Hosting.
